Designed specifically for dental hygienists, participants of this course will acquire the necessary knowledge and skills to place technically-sound and clinically acceptable dental restorations using a variety of restorative materials. The three-week course is comprised of pre-clinical lectures and lab work during the first week, followed by two weeks of rotation at a community dental clinic where participants restore teeth prepared by a dentist during the live patient care.
